Auto Hunting With My Clones - Chapter 193
< Prince Hardin (2) >
The mana loudspeaker must have been used, and the sound reverberated through the shabby street corner in front of the castle.
And that warning separated the joys and sorrows of the two camps.
“Finally…”
Hope sprouted on the face of Bahrain, who was showing off his strength, and Prince Hardin, who had a pale
complexion
.
He knew this could happen even before he appeared in the Raven Manor.
Because anywhere, illegal trespassing on other territories without prior permission is not tolerated.
Not to mention the Raven dukedom that once reigned supreme.
‘I was trying to speed things up.’
It seemed that he was wasting too much time trying to keep his own respect for the old prince.
He realized he could not delay any longer.
– Grab the prince and fall out.
Jeremy, who gave a brief command to the Bismarck Knights with communication magic, immediately activated the arcane magic built into the belt.
[Blink]
Blink belt.
Maybe it’s because it’s a magic weapon that he personally received from Duke Bismarck after becoming the leader of the Bismarck Knights.
His belt was a magical weapon that allowed him to use blink magic.
And like the name, his new model teleported about 5m and immediately appeared behind Prince Hardin.
Jeremy puts his hand on the back of the prince right away.
[Shock]
Then, the electric shock magic built into the glove was activated, and
Prince
Hardin rolled his eyes and collapsed powerlessly into Jeremy’s arms with the sound of electricity bouncing.
It was a teleportation skill that Jeremy activated, so it happened in the blink of an eye, less than a second.
It was the moment when it seemed like Jeremy would secure the prince and the whole situation would end.
‘danger!’
Jeremy felt a chill run down his spine.
So instinctively, he turned his body backwards, using Prince Hardin in his arms as a shield.
It was exactly in the direction of Bahrain.
Seok-
And his judgment was correct.
Without knowing when it arrived, the Bahrain sword surrounded by blue aura blades stopped right in front of Prince Hardin’s nose.
‘Come again!’
And Bahrain did not give up just because the first blow was blocked by Prince Hardin.
The sword in front of Jeremy’s eyes was retrieved as if it had disappeared, and then stabbed right into Jeremy’s gap.
‘Fast!’
Jeremy couldn’t draw his sword and create a gap to block Bahrain’s separation.
[Haste]
Even so, I finally completed the activation of Haste magic and raised my body movements.
After that, he just managed to use Prince Hardin as a shield to block Bahrain’s sword.
Then, as if wondering when it had been swung so quickly, the sword of Bahrain came to a dead end in front of Prince Hardin.
And then it was recovered and the third strike of Bahrain flew in.
Jeremy felt his eyes widen.
“This is the Grand Sword Master…”
They are great masters who have surpassed the sword masters, who are said to be masters of swords that have formed a family in swords.
Jeremy, who was quite young and did not experience the days of Cranid’s great invasion, had no memory of competing with the Grand Sword Master even once.
That’s why I didn’t know exactly about their strength.
I only heard rumors.
So, I thought that if I was a sword master and wore enchantment magic arms, I would be compared to the grand sword master in my heart.
When I opened the lid, what was this?
‘Overwhelmingly strong.’
If only he wasn’t old.
If he didn’t have the hostage and shield of Prince Hardin.
He would not have been able to withstand the single sword of Bahrain and would have run away.
Jeremy frantically blocked Bahrain’s sword and managed to give the order.
-…Help!
Actually, it was a bit frustrating.
Strangely, all the Bismarck Knights didn’t help him when he dealt with Bahrain like crazy.
‘I only need to buy a moment, but these are…’
It was a fairly elite Knights of Bismarck, but there was no reaction, whether it was because they were overwhelmed by the prestige of Bahrain or because it was difficult to aim for a gap.
However, that was Jeremy’s misunderstanding.
“Huh…”
Jeremy was startled by the sensation of something hitting his back as he frantically backed away, avoiding Bahrain’s sword.
‘It was obviously far from the castle gate, so there was quite a bit of space.’
Did he mean that he had already retreated to the inner wall?
And that was his last question.
Suddenly,
without any sign, his left arm, which had been holding Prince Hardin tightly, fell off like a broken toy.
“…hmm?”
While Jeremy, unable to comprehend the situation, blankly stares at Prince Hardin, who is collapsing on the floor.
Daenggung-
Bahrain’s sword cut his throat.
Jeremy’s head was blown away by sword power and tumbled on the floor.
Was it cut too neatly?
Jeremy was able to capture the last sight of his life for some time even though his throat ran away.
‘…who.’
What he saw was the back of a man wearing a grotesque black suit that tightly covered his entire body.
And as he saw the man holding the fallen Prince Hardin in his arms, Jeremy’s vision gradually darkened.
So now, the only ones left in front of the inner world are the exhausted Bahrain, the distraught Prince Hardin, and the mysterious man.
“Hey… heck…”
Bahrain tried to calm his trembling body and was wary of the new man who appeared in front of him.
A mysterious man who almost ‘erased’ the Bismarck Knights while he was dealing with Jeremy.
He helped in the battle against the Knights of Bismarck, but Bahrain was never caught off guard.
Because the prince’s safety was entrusted to a stranger.
“…Who are you?”
Bahrain asked the man while trying to control the power of the core that exploded.
There is only one reason why he speaks.
It was to soothe the tired body for a while and gather strength.
And the sadly handsome mysterious man in front of him opened his mouth while supporting Prince Hardin.
-Uhm… Are you on the same side as the prince here…?
Despite his great skills, he asked a stupid question as if he couldn’t understand the situation.
His language was unfamiliar, but through translation magic, it was properly conveyed to Bahraini’s mind.
“…I am serving His Highness, Prince Hardin.”
Yes.
he was superior
No, it was Sang-woo’s alter ego.
‘What do you mean? What’s going on?’
Sang-woo, unable to understand Bahrain, tilted his head.
In fact, the current alter ego was Sang Woo’s alter ego, which resided in the inner sanctuary to prepare for any unexpected danger.
Originally, it was an alter ego that Sang-woo used to teach Kai-rin, patrol, or handle chores requested by Nigel without direct connection.
But, at Nigel’s sudden request, he hurriedly departed here.
Sangwoo touched the communicator hanging around his neck.
-Ah, Mr. Nigel. I killed all the guys with drops of blood you mentioned. A handsome man who looks like a prince has also been secured. But there’s an old man who looks like a prosecutor in front of you, isn’t he on the same side?
he asked Nigel over the communicator.
The old man, who seemed to be the enemy of the Bismarck Knights, seemed to be on the same side as Prince Hardin, but Sang-woo didn’t know that well, so he tried to point it out.
-Wait for me. Sang Woo.
And Nigel, who was vividly checking the scene through the video communicator attached to the guard post.
After confirming the appearance of Bahrain, he hurriedly replied to Sang-woo.
– Wow, you can’t fight. He is the former head of the Imperial Guard Division, Bahrain’s Gyeongil age. I’m on Prince Hardin’s side.
-Ah yes. All right.
-Return to Yeongji Castle with him.
-Yeah~
Now that the situation is over, Sang-woo playfully replies as if he is cool inside.
He sighed and opened his mouth.
– Hey Grandpa? Just finished checking. Bahrain is amazing…. Hmmm. Anyway, Mr. Nigel, no, Duke Raven is asking me to bring him. Follow me.
After Sang-woo said what he had to say, he put Bahrain behind him and turned his back.
Then he walked and jumped up the wall.
Sang-woo climbs a tremendous height of several tens of meters casually.
Seeing him like that, Bahrain, who had been absent-minded for a while, followed Sang-woo belatedly.
“Stop!”
-Come up quickly.
Sang-woo, who had lifted Prince Hardin afloat with his telekinetic powers, gestured to him to come.
Bahrain soothed the tired mind and body, kicked off the ground, and climbed onto the wall.
What awaits him is the appearance of the inner guard and Sang-woo.
And it was a huge city nestled inside it.
‘This place is Raven Mansion…’
Contrary to the rumors that it was going to ruin, and unlike the pretty desolate outer castle, the place was teeming with people and full of noise and chimney smoke everywhere.
It was a very lively city.
So Bahrain lost her gaze there for a while, but soon turned her attention to her master, Prince Hardin.
“Give him here.”
Bahrain did not have an interpreter, so his words were not properly conveyed to Sang-woo, but he realized that he was asking for Prince Hardin’s safety.
‘He looks uneasy.’
And at his request, Sang-woo grinned.
– Take it.
As if giving something, Sang-woo handed out Prince Hardin, who had been floated by telekinesis, to Bahrain.
Bahrain, who cherishes him in his arms.
Perhaps it was because he exploded the mana core, but his face, which had aged much more than before, was relieved.
“Your Highness…”
Prince Hardin, still unconscious.
However, Bahrain did not wake him on purpose.
‘He must have been exhausted.’
Rather, it was better to take a good rest at a time like this.
Holding Prince Hardin in his arms, Bahrain looked at Sang-woo.
“Guide me to Duke Raven.”
Bahrain’s words to go now.
Sangwoo noticed his words and nodded.
-Then shall we go?
As soon as he finishes his words, Sang-woo launches Bahrain and Prince Hardin at the same time with telekinesis.
“Uh…?”
Bahrain is bewildered by the sudden floating sensation of his body.
And before he had time to calm himself down, Sang-woo and them were shot towards Duke Raven’s mansion nestled in the inner castle.
Paaang –
The three disappear as the strong wind blows.
after they left
For a while, the inner guards and the guards captain, who had been lined up in a tense state, sighed and relaxed.
“End of situation! Everyone go back to your seats!”
While the captain of the guard puts the assembled guards back into place.
The guards who were returning to their seats began to murmur.
“Whoah… The momentum is no joke.”
“Is that Lord Bahrain? Wassi… Seeing the legend with my own eyes.”
“But the former duke’s pupil looked much stronger, didn’t he?”
“I know. Is it because it is the guardian sword of the next empire?”
“I must have surpassed even the former Grand Sword Master.”
“Then your apprentice is also a Grand Sword Master?”
“I guess so. Didn’t you see that Bahraini was also nervous?”
Admiring guards.
And that was the beginning.
Rumors that Sang-woo’s power reached the Grand Sword Master began to spread throughout the empire.
* * *
“Hmm…”
Prince Hardin turned over, feeling slightly warm under the warm blanket.
‘Um… um? bedding?’
He was obviously outside.
Embarrassed, the prince felt a flash of light.
When I opened my eyes with him, I could see the ceiling of a fairly tidy but luxurious room.
But it was an unfamiliar environment.
Suddenly,
the prince stood up, his head clear as if cold water had been poured on his head.
He hurriedly got himself out of bed and looked around.
‘Where am I?’
He opened the slightly open window next to him.
Fortunately, the window was opened without any obstruction.
And the garden full of green weeds and the wall came into view at a glance, probably because the place where he was located was quite high.
‘…Should I jump?’
If you were captured by the Bismarck Knights, it would be best to escape here while your guard is still weak.
Prince Hardin swallowed, looking at the floor that looked quite deep.
‘I have to do it…’
Now was the opportunity because he could monitor himself to see if he was awake from time to time.
Prince Hardin carefully climbed up to the window in his pajamas, which he hadn’t changed at any time.
It was then.
Pod!
A man appeared at the same time as the wave of mana spread in Prince Hardin’s room.
The man in a fairly comfortable training suit.
It was Sangwoo.
-Hey, what are you doing?
And as soon as he appeared, he looked at the prince who was whimpering by the window and went upstairs.
